PM Modi to have dinner with Delhi Police personnel at G20 venue on 16 September

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will hold a dinner party with Delhi police officials on 16 September to laud them for success of the G20 Summit under India’s presidency. More than 450 Delhi police officials, including the best performing officials from each and every department and every district, will be part of the dinner that will take place at Bharat Mandapam in Pragati Maidan, the venue of the G20 Summit 2023. According to reports, Police Commissioner of Delhi, Sanjay Arora has asked for the names of police personnel from every district who were deployed for the duty. It is worth mentioning that for the first time Prime Minister of India has invited police officials who worked relentlessly to make sure that the G20 Summit 2023 become a success. The Delhi Police was solely given the responsibility for the outer security of the high-profile G20 Summit that was held in the national capital on 9 and 10 September. The capital had turned into fortress. Security during the G20 Summit was the biggest challenge as world leaders had congregated in Delhi and the cops of the national capital proved its mettle. Several departments of Delhi Police worked in tandem for the successful and hassle free G20 Summit in India that was attended by head of more than 31 states. The work on security plan for the G20 Summit began since September last year.
